it’s friday, march 29, & moon is in scorpio, moving from the starspace called vishakha into anuradha at 9 a.m. MDT. scorpio vibrates with the frequency of all the fears, doubts, uncertainties that arise from our relationships. it’s where we get to test our emotional mettle, our ability to be with the discomfort of unpleasant feelings. scorpio is opposite taurus. taurus is our comfort zone, scorpio our discomfort zone. both have a purpose, both support each other, both get to be integrated, balanced.
“when you’re nervous about stepping outside of your comfort zone, remind yourself: ‘it feels scary b/c it’s unfamiliar, not b/c i’m incapable.’ “—michell c. clark
scorpio is where we get to experience fear as courage becoming known by not being afraid of our discomfort.
anuradha (see yesterday’s post for vishakha) is ruled by mitra, the divine friend, which is what radha was to krishna. noooo, they were not married to each other, they were married to other people, but that is perhaps why radha was able to be fully devoted to krishna (discuss amongst yourselves!). “anuradha” can be broken down into “anu” (following) + “radha” (radha), as in, following in the footsteps of radha, being like her. this asterism invites us to be a divine friend to one & all by seeing the divine in one & all, by remembering that we are each fractals of the one consciousness (call it god if you like) & so are the same, not separate, not different.
“you will realize that the one appears as the many, & you will know that nothing whatsoever exists outside of the one.”—anandamayi ma
the fourth lunar day (tithi), the fourth phase of the waning moon, becomes the fifth right before moon moves into anuradha. the fifth tithi brings much-welcome relief after the transformation we may have undergone by meeting the challenges of the fourth’s obstacles! a person can take only so much transformation in one go, so thank goddess for this tithi’s quality of nourishment—to make things grow, to bring comfort. how or what can you nourish today? what kind of nourishment do you need?
friday is owned by venus, planet of love & other earthly delights. “love is a combination of gratefulness, friendliness & compassion,” said osho. “if these three are there, then you are in love.”
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a sort of lunar weather report. may it allow you to align with the day’s cosmic energy so you can find & create a little more bliss.
